How to prioritize/present internal circle proposals?

This document aims to define how CC members can create, formulate and present new proposals within the Catalyst Circle. It takes the lead from the criteria used in existing Catalyst Proposals.

Prioritizing.

The priorities are measured against the following criteria

Criteria

  • impact - what impact does your proposal have on the wider situation

  • feasibility - how feasible is the proposal over the short, middle or long term

    ○ - budget - what size budget is required to execute the proposal

  • auditability - how thoroughly can the proposal be tracked for progress once adopted

  • adjustability - as this environment is changing constantly and rapidly , proposals have to be flexible to stay in a “just in time” relation

  • inclusivity - How many groups can define their needs and interest within the submitted proposal

Preparation

Formulate the proposal in collaboration with other CC Members and/or the wider community

Presentation

  • Present your proposal in the CC meeting or beside, in a short, and understandable format.

  • Simplify and shorten your final presentation

  • Make sure that everyone in the CC has access to your presentation.
